Forbidden Passion

Chapter 353 The Imprisoned Embrace

Phoebe had never seen anything like this and was terrified. By the time she thought to fight back, she was already in the car. "Edward..."

Before she could finish, a towel was shoved in her mouth, and she was tied up. This sudden nighttime abduction nearly drove her mad with fear. Phoebe struggled, but several hands held her down. The car door slammed shut, and the black business car sped off.

In less than a minute, she watched helplessly as Edward was taken away by two men in black, getting farther and farther away.

Despair washed over her, and a million thoughts raced through her mind.

'Who wants to kidnap me? What do they want? Is Vanessa behind this?'

The car was eerily quiet. After tying her up, the men in black did nothing else. The dark vehicle and flickering streetlights outside made it worse.

The silence made Phoebe even more anxious. She tried to push the towel out of her mouth but couldn't.

Two men in black sat on either side of her, their faces cold and ruthless.

The more she thought, the more scared she got. Then, they covered her eyes with a black cloth.

'Why cover my eyes? Are they going to kill me? At least they should use me to get money from Theodore,' she thought angrily.

Even if Theodore wouldn't pay, her mom, Evelyn, would know she was kidnapped and find a way to get the money.

At this point, money didn't matter. Losing her life was the real fear.

The car sped down the highway. An hour later, it stopped in an underground parking lot where Lawton was waiting.
